epa02929361 The statue of goddess Athena is seen as a banner calls for an indefinite general strike during a students' protest against education reforms in Athens, Greece, 22 September 2011. The government announced new austerity measures on 21 September, which include the immediate redundancies of thousands of civil servants and new pension cuts, in order to secure crucial bailout funds needed to avoid bankruptcy. Greece is under growing pressure from its international creditors, the European Union, the International Monetary Fund and the European Commission, to curtail its huge public deficit. Classrooms were empty as secondary school teachers, protesting cutbacks, joined the strike, and primary school teachers held rolling work stoppages. EPA/ORESTIS PANAGIOTOU +++(c) dpa - Bildfunk+++
